It could be difficult writing Wikipedia articles about these soldiers. Wikisource has author pages for a lot of people who are not notable, dont have a bio because writing one is *hard*, etc. https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Category:Author_pages_not_linking_to_Wikipedia Wikisource Author pages provide sufficient space for small descriptions of the author, and Portal pages can be used to collect all related authors and works together. -- John Vandenberg _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
